Estimada Amiga:

Personalmente dezconozco de caso alguno de seroconversion mas alla de 18 meses. Para su tranquilidad le puedo recomendar realizarse una prueba de PCR RNA viral cualitativa la cual de estar negativa como se espera le asegura que usted no estuvo expuesta al virus de su pareja y por consiguiente no esta infectada.
